O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.

If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.
